Funnily enough, Gladstone is high on the list. Some good ones there Phil, thanks. Funny story, I used to work in a school with a lot of African kids. The Zimbabweans had a tendency to pick a nice English word and name their child with it. Hence there were kids called Happy, Achieve, Lucky, Peace and...

OK: Anouk, Benson, Casper, Dex, Enzo, Fidel, Garrison, Harley, Istvan, Japheth, Kele, Leo, Mort, Newton, Orion, Pyotr, Quenby, Roald, Silas, Travis, Ulysses, Werner, Xuan, Yan, Zachariah? Jim, these are good. I especially like Enzo, Fidel, Silas and Ulysses. I'll run em by the missus tomorrow. Anym...

This is a genuine competition. My first child is due in July and we are still without any boys names. We have plenty of girls names but we're pretty sure it's going to be a boy. I quite like Zinedine and Tegucigalpa but for some strange reason the wife won't allow either. We were leaning towards Rom...

The fact that 50% of people on a Countdown forum are in or have been in any sort of relationship with another human being greatly surprises me.

Matthew Green

So I'm married to a woman but I get lumped in with the gayers? Not fair.

Matthew Green

He got raped and murdered. Sorry to have to break this to you Jason.

The player who has just won would be more tired but they'd also be more attuned to the game and the studio while the other guy might be a bit rusty. At the 2008 Wimbledon, Nadal battled through some long matches while Federer cruised through so everyone thought Federer would kill him because he was ...

90's boybands and goalscorers- literally my two favourite subjects. Why won't any of these fucking pussies choose one of them?

Matthew Green

Nothing beats seeing a good old schoolboy on countdown eh?

Haha, a quote from my wife (who rarely swears BTW) about 20 seconds through that round:

'What the fuck's he being so smug about? He only did some fucking sums, it's not like he's actually achieved anything. Jesus'

Kai Laddiman and Alec Rivers.

I cannot believe that only 67% of people named 'Christianity' when they were given 100 seconds to name as many religions as possible. Thats just mind-boggling. I would have found it amusing if it had been 99% but for it to be that low makes me feel even better about emigrating from this shithole.

Matthew Green

Flawed poll. The phonetics for 'c for countdown' and 'c fore countdown' are profoundly different. If 'C fore Countdown' isnt added to the poll I'll never forgive you Morrison.

Matthew Green

PUNJABI, round 4.

Yes Mr Langdon, you are correct.

Every time he scores less than 7, Chris looks like he's just discovered he has an incurable disease. Surely not the spirit to have for a 'fun Countdown Special'?

I was there in the audience and the crew and cast must have been tired at the end of a long Tuesday. Rachel in reply to Jeff's opening spreach said "Olympics" instead of "Oscars" and then cracked up - you couldn't see the join in the edit when just broadcast. More later... They ...

Am I the only one who isn't disappointed to learn that Jacob Sutton isn't banned from the Countdown studios?

Carol does appear to have been despicably treated by the management at Channel 4/Countdown/ITV studios. In what way? The circumstances of Carol's leaving has been gone over a few times on here. Can you really say that she was treated well? I agree. My employer recently offered me a 6-figure salary ...

Matthew Green

ZOMG Jeff spoiled today's show for me. I hadn't seen it and was watching Soccer Saturday, and he made reference to Clarke's 'awful time' or something, of his shocking display against the Skates on top of losing on Countdown. I believe the Sky Sports switchboard was jammed all day with angry Countdo...

Impartial comments from a Blackpool fan of course.

I was referring to the achievements of the Burnley players. It is not their fault that the owners are a joke, the ground is a joke and that they have lost their manager. Taking it into consideration, I think they've definitely done pretty well.

Matthew Green

James, Burnley got promoted last season and have managed to perform pretty well considering hugely limited resources and losing their manager halfway through the season. They have a squad of championship players, a championship stadium, league one resources and now a league one manager. The fact tha...

I was hoping this would be a debate about the merits of old people. I despise them, they cause global warming and do nothing else of note. Except clutter post offices because they're so lonely.

Matthew Green

In r4 when Jay declared FOAMIEST, I'm sure he actually said 'I'M A CHEATING TWAT'. I watched it back on SkyPlus and he most definitely did.

Matthew Green

Cut the crap jason, you were wanking weren't you?

Matthew Green

He definitely said OUTSTEER, unless he suddenly regressed to a former life as a Geordie. When Jeff misheard him he blatantly said yes, realising that OUTSTARE was much more likely. Throw the cheating twat in a windowless cell with Thierry Henry and Pauline Huggins until they eat each other to death,...

I knew there was an explanation.

I don't know who he means either Matt. That makes two of us- a reasonable % of the c4c regular users- and therefore renders the phrase 'you know who' pretty inaccurate.

Matthew Green

Ok, I admit it was only 235. I was 1 away on the second numbers game.

Funnily enough Jason, when I filmed my shows on Countdown I actually got a perfect score. However, during Susie's origin of words I raped the Dictionary Corner guest- Richie from the Manic Street Preachers- to death so they cut it, got in John Sargeant and re-shot. Unfortunately, on the next show I ...

Jason, the first ten words of your post were encouragingly normal. Then you went and blew it.

You can add me to the list if you're gonna keep posting shit like this.

This thread is the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

Matthew Green

Conor has a cute butt but Kai has a prettier face.

Although it must be added that he carried that show on his own. If it wasn't for him, I dont think many people could have put up with those dreadful unfunny egomaniacs and Jimmy Carr's appalling laugh.
